Gently and in order.'' Most of the
troubles in the past has been due
to the practice Of tale bearing, and
it's too ready encouragement by
those who should know better.
Give the experiment fair trial

statutes, known as intercourse
laws that are as obsolete and i'm.
practicable for all purposes, as are
the edicts Of the first Roman en-
perors, or the municipal regula-
tions of the lost Atlantis; occa-
sionally through malice, vindica-
tive arrogance or fanaticism, an
attempt is made to revive them,
but usually the attempt is spas
modlc and brief, and those who at
tempt it are soon convinced that
the country has outgrown them,
and that it no longer fits the pres
ent condition Of the people Of this
reservation. Such laws should be
relegated to the Legislative lum.
Der piles and buried in oblivion.
Such laws do not, nor have they
ever courted reverence or respect
tor Indian agents or their superi-
ors, on the other hand it may well
be questioned whether, by their
inhuman and tyranical conditions
they have done much to demoral-
alize the trnst and faith af a once
confding and truly loyal people.
Expulsion of Indians from res
ervation has generally fallen into
disrepute, yet no effort seems to
have been made to repeal or amend
the laws governing them. It is
not however, difficult to explain
this seeming indifference, for, so
long as the law is a dead letter the
people interested, naturally become
indifferent to its repeal, and they
remain of no mement until some
effort is made to enforce them,
then agitation begins for it's re-
peal or modification. .-...
In the name Of humanity, and
by all that is sacred in the Consti-
tuition, the only sensible plan with
respect to the laws relating to In
dians, and which have long since
become obsolete, would seem to ei-
ther repeal or remodel them to fit
and be in unison with the tone and
condition of the present moral and
social standard of the White Earth
reservation. -BA.sHIG.

THY BROTHERS. KEEPER.

One of the first moral lessons
which should be taught commu-
nifty like ours, is the negative Of
the title of this article. In the
early stage of the history of any
people, we find social condition ex.
exceedingly primitive; beyond the
family relation, there practically
exists no society, or the family ex-
lists in isolation then the family
grows into the tribe, or the ma
tion; relationship expands, and
then follows necessity for circum-
spection. And however much the
need for broad charity in judge
ment, even undor ordinary condi-
tions, there is much more for a
community situated as is ours,
and indeed, for any Indian COM
munity, because of it's dependent
position. There is great danger
in the fact that an almost unlim-
tied power vested in one indiyidu-
al will encourage the thought,
that to secure the ear of that indi-
vidual, will be beneficial. This
means that if such parsonage is
not broad enough to look beyond
his own horizon he will welcome
and reward those who will volun-
tarily bring to him such intelli-
gence as will advance his projects.
It is this feeling of expected re-
ward which impels many to con.
stitute themselves their brothers
keeper Let those in high places,
whether civil or religious discour-
age this tendency by preachment
and practice. This can be easily.
done. The teacher of morals and
religion, can set forth from the
pulpit that the Bible teaches Off
ciousness, and tale bearing to be
moral crimes, and will put this In
to effect by discountenancing the
practices Of espionage and tale

Again the Pine and Land Sharks.

We quote from letter addressed
to us on the condition of the Indi-
ans of the Fond du Lac reserva-
tion in reference to pine and
lumber contracts etc.
"There is no question but that
the Fond du Lac Indian reserva-
tion is run in the interest of a
ring, and that the Govt farmer
in charge has not and will not do
anything that does not tend to the
interest of the Wisconsin crowd ,
This was openly and notoriouJy,
the policy last winter. The Indi-
ans have been encouraged to make
contracts this year and l do not
hear of any restraint as yet, other
than moral suasion,' being put
upon them as to whom they shall
contract with. So far, every one
except perhaps the elect, are in
doubt whether the contracts, or
how many of them, will be ap-
proved by the agent, and the In

Interior competent to direct the
employment of their blacksmiths,
mechanics, teachers, farmers, or
other persons engaged for them,
the direction of such persons may
be given to the proper authority
of the tribe.
Unless the foregoing have been
repealed it is difficult to believe or
understand, how the government
can change it's policy as Bishop
Whipple has stated. However,
admitting such to be the case, it
would have been liberal in the
commission to have agreed that
Indian labor, or employment,
should extend to every branch of
the service at this agency, instead
OF intimating that by so doing
Congress would not ratify the
treaty." The commission should
have anticipated the Dawes sever
atty bill approved last February,
which provides fully for Indian
employment. They could have
agreed to this with as much con-
sistency as in the land question,
and rely on change Of sentiment
in the U. S. Senate in reference
to Indian employment-a senti-
ment which plainly exhibits itself
in the 'severalty act in favor of
the employment of the Indian in
any capacity when fitted.
United States laws, unless re-
Gently repealed, relative to this
matter have been in existence ma
ny years, but "gov't policy seems
ever to be an obstacle to their ex
execution. The general govern
ment expends annually great sums
of money for Indian education;
what then, (if a policy as men
toned by the treaty commission
is antagonistic) is the necessity Of
educating our people. Why tax
the white people to educate an
Indian to such standard that is
of no value (seemingly curse to
him that hath) on an Indian res
ervation? Can our law marked

Special Correspondence.
IS LAW AN EDUCATOR ON AN IN-
b. DIAN RESERVATION? ..

1t IS tavorlte theory with re-
formers that law is a great educa-
tor ! But how it is an educator on
an Indian reservation, is never ex-
planned quite clearly by the off,
cials of the Indian bureau; and
ministers generally accept the
same theory, and they have at
tempted to convey an idea that
the presence of law upon the stat
utes impresses the people, regard
less of the principals or the pre-
cepts which they seem to assume.
The officials Of the Indian bureau
seem to believe, that if certain
laws could be smuggled into the
statutes prohibiting the use Of to-
bacco, or prescribing more than
one meal day among the Indians
or be expelled from the reserva-
tion, that the Indians in time
would accept the conditions from
conviction that it was beneficial.
This happily, is not the prevail
ing sentiment of this people in re-
CARDS to such an arbitrary course
of dictum, neither has it ever
found a welcome in human expe-
rience. In the case of children or
persons Of mature Judgment, un-
questioned obedience to commands
or authority, can be secured with
comparative ease; but the moment
the mind achieves confidence in
itself it demands reasons for ODE.

INDIAN who is now rapidly attain
ing his majority cannot be put off
in this way. He wishes to know
everything in matters which effect
him as member of an Indian res
ervation. The citizen does this
in the states and territories and
even thereon the broad fields of
christian ciyilization-often gets
himself into no end of trouble
thereby. Past experience in these
matters has shown that. the Indi-

and this, oft lines on the notorious
absurdity of ex7pdrtie evidence !!
There are many illustrations in
the history Of the laws and regu-
lations for the government Of In

absu1dity and fallacy of the edu-
cational or beneficial theory. To-
